Too many appointments today, so only a small windows to do anything, so drybrushing it is.






Basic stone is done, base is next, then adding washes for some extra colour, varnish, tufts and dusting and I must be clearly insane but what else is new......

Dat zie je niet aankomen.

Moet jij geen scheepjes schilderen?

Nice work!

All in all it's just a-nother brick in the wall...

Daring project, reminds me of your bunker project: Still thinking big after years you should have learnt better. On the other hand - who of us could...  lol

That was 10 years ago, a younger man back than (with more working parts). The Bunker Project was a great idea, I was just lacking the required skill and motivation. Plus I have 4 more weeks to go till surgery so I want to get as much done as possible before they "fix" my hand and I should be a good 2-4 weeks out of action then.

Plus, this bit of scenery works for sooooo many more settings.....

Outstanding! Immediately made me think of the aqueduct in Segovia in Spain - except of course that the one in Segovia isn't in ruins! I love the modularity of this build - a lot of work, but it will definitely be worth it. The painted ruin pieces look wonderful - I can hardly wait to see them completely finished!

Best of luck with your surgery - I hope all goes well.

Thx Lads. Michi, Erik (Modhail) has it now and with Crayne we are trying to make a Deep Space Hulk Salvage sort of a game.

Progress for today, 4 ruined walls have had a lost of washes to change the tones of the rock, and the primer for the sand has been apllied.

Also, I think I can finish off these 2 ruined supports tomorrow and get them ready for priming when it has all set properly.

Hell no, no snow. Would be odd using these in Cambodja covered in snow....

The 2 ruined columns are pretty much done, another coat of thinned glue/water/detergent mix tonight to make the sand really rock hard, and basecoating them sundsy evening, I hope. The 4 wall ruins are now finished base wise so will get varnished tomorrow, then tufts and dust and it is done. Also, I found a Buddah for the 50 cent challenge that I'm basing in the same way.






Again my apolagies for the shitty phone pics, it is all I have.
